High-end new homes, renovations and extensions across Melbourne. Owner-led from first sketch to handover, and backed by a $20M warranty most builders can't match.
Townhouse builders in Melbourne
A boutique townhouse development creates several dwellings on one site rather than one detached house. Lambert York builds three-to-six dwelling projects for Melbourne landowners and small developers seeking a custom-home finish across Bayside, the Inner East, Mornington Peninsula and North West Melbourne. Pat handles feasibility pricing and contracts; David oversees site delivery.
Small developments, built without shortcuts.
Buyers of boutique townhouses expect custom-home quality. We give developers a fixed price early for their feasibility, realistic programmes their lenders trust, and a finish that shortens time on market.

How much does a townhouse development cost in Melbourne?+
A reliable price needs your drawings, site conditions and selections. TODO: Pat to confirm a three-to-six dwelling budget range and cost basis. Pat confirms inclusions and exclusions before you commit.
How long does a townhouse development take?+
The existing service guide lists 16–20 months overall; 14–16 months building. TODO: Confirm the current timeframe and the boundary between design, approvals and construction with Pat. Your project programme is agreed before contract, with David providing build updates.
Do I need permits for this work in Melbourne?+
Building approvals are part of the new-build process, and planning requirements depend on the site and proposal. Zoning, overlays and the design need review before the required approvals and programme can be confirmed.
What size townhouse developments does Lambert York build?+
Lambert York's townhouse service is for boutique projects of three to six dwellings. Early cost planning tests the proposed yield and scope, with design and permits developed alongside your architect and town planner.
What does the $20M warranty facility mean for my project?+
The $20M figure is Lambert York's builder warranty insurance facility, not a $20M payout for your home. Your project's insurance has its own certificate, terms and limits; ask Pat to explain the documents that apply to your contract.
Who will quote my project and run the build?+
Pat Pugliese handles quotes, pricing, contracts and client contact. David Filippelli runs the site, trades, programme and build quality, and both founders stand behind the work.
